Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A terminally ill patient who is depressed may initially struggle with feelings of helplessness and hopelessness. However, as they come to accept their illness and their limited control over the situation, they may be able to make peace and come to terms with their circumstances. This is reflected in choice D, where the patient is able to acknowledge their lack of control and begin to process their emotions in a healthier way. The other options, such as constantly questioning "why me?" or trying to strike a bargain with God, may indicate a continued struggle with acceptance and can prolong feelings of distress.
